This quote was at rural Dunlop tyre shop, so sure I can get a better price in a major town. If anyone is keen to inquire I'd be interested to see price differences throughout the states and dealers.

Although the price jumps up a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd expect that they wouldn't make the tire in the size I'm after if it wasn't suited, just my opinion though. Need others and experiences with Re001 even first so I can make an informed decision.

Going to buy a full set of Yokohamas or Michelins next.I don't rate pirellis at all, by the time they wear out you swear your wheels bearings are gone and it turns out to be the Tyres Edited 04/08/11 09:00 PM by will-82 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they are cheap too so I can change them if they go bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I quite like them, grip heaps better than I thought although it took a couple of days to come good. They are heaps better than the factory dunlops in every way, and at around 280 a corner I can't complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
